A female employee holed up inside an office at a middle school in Baldwin Park Thursday, prompting an evacuation of the campus.
Officers were dispatched about 9:45 a.m. to Olive Middle School, 13701 Olive St., regarding a disturbance involving a school employee, according to a Baldwin Park Police Department dispatcher. The nature of the disturbance was unclear.
At one point during the conversation with officers, the employee closed an office door in the main building at the school and barricaded herself inside the room, according to the dispatcher.
There was no indication the woman was armed, however, a SWAT team was deployed to the campus.
Students were dismissed early for the day as the standoff continued mid-afternoon Thursday.
No injuries were reported and there was no other immediate information.
